Effects of Cognitive Distraction and Driving Environment Complexity on Adaptive Cruise Control Use and Its Impact on Driving Performance: A Simulator Study
In this simulator study, we adopt a human-centered approach to explore whether and how drivers' cognitive state and driving environment complexity influence reliance on driving automation features. Besides, we examine whether such reliance affects driving performance. Participants operated a vehicle equipped with adaptive cruise control (ACC) in a simulator across six predefined driving scenarios varying in traffic conditions while either performing a cognitively demanding task (i.e., respondin…

Trump yesterday:
"I didn't know Epstein. Nothing to see here."

1000 FBI witnesses to Trump's order revealed by Senator Durbin.

Trump today:
"It's a hoax. Biden put me in the Epstein files."

☑️ #FBI agents told to flag Jeffrey #Epstein

FBI agents were told to 'flag' any Epstein records that mentioned Trump, Sen. Durbin says
President Donald Trump, bowing to days of pressure, asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to get grand jury testimony about Jeffrey Epstein unsealed.

#Transit growth outpaces driving growth in Metro #Vancouver
More people in Metro Vancouver are choosing transit over driving as their primary option to get around, according to new data from TransLink. In 2024, there were 7.7 million more trips on transit, an increase of more than three per cent over 2023, o…

Moodifier: MLLM-Enhanced Emotion-Driven Image Editing
Bridging emotions and visual content for emotion-driven image editing holds great potential in creative industries, yet precise manipulation remains challenging due to the abstract nature of emotions and their varied manifestations across different contexts. We tackle this challenge with an integrated approach consisting of three complementary components. First, we introduce MoodArchive, an 8M+ image dataset with detailed hierarchical emotional annotations generated by LLaVA and partially valid…

Reminder to people who drive motor vehicles on streets in the city. Street driving is generally allowed, except where signs give notice it is prohibited. But it must be done with due caution and reasonable speed, and the motorist must yield to all other traffic, including pedestrians, cyclists, and trams, and must give an audible signal before overtaking and passing. Learn more in our 90-second training seminar, "DRIVING ON STREETS, Being A Polite Guest".

Testing Autonomous Driving Systems -- What Really Matters and What Doesn't
Despite extensive research, the testing of autonomous driving systems (ADS) landscape remains fragmented, and there is currently no basis for an informed technical assessment of the importance and contribution of the current state of the art. This paper attempts to address this problem by exploring two complementary aspects. First, it proposes a framework for comparing existing test methods in terms of their intrinsic effectiveness and validity. It shows that many methods do not meet both of …

AGENTS-LLM: Augmentative GENeration of Challenging Traffic Scenarios with an Agentic LLM Framework
Rare, yet critical, scenarios pose a significant challenge in testing and evaluating autonomous driving planners. Relying solely on real-world driving scenes requires collecting massive datasets to capture these scenarios. While automatic generation of traffic scenarios appears promising, data-driven models require extensive training data and often lack fine-grained control over the output. Moreover, generating novel scenarios from scratch can introduce a distributional shift from the original …

ADRD: LLM-Driven Autonomous Driving Based on Rule-based Decision Systems
How to construct an interpretable autonomous driving decision-making system has become a focal point in academic research. In this study, we propose a novel approach that leverages large language models (LLMs) to generate executable, rule-based decision systems to address this challenge. Specifically, harnessing the strong reasoning and programming capabilities of LLMs, we introduce the ADRD(LLM-Driven Autonomous Driving Based on Rule-based Decision Systems) framework, which integrates three co…
